You meet a man who "is" 39 or 40 according to his profile.
Date goes well, you want to see him again.
He looked exactly as in his profile. Better in person, actually.
On 2nd date the man tells you he is actually 44 or 45
and feels bad about lying about his age online but did not
want women who only consider <40 to exclude him.
Do you understand and continue to date this guy you like ?
Or do you refuse to see him again because he lied about his
age or because you really DO only consider men under 40
and would rather be with a bald, fat fart who is 36 than with
a 44 year old who has all his hair, is athletic and fun ?

There would have been a time in my life where I would not have considered that a big deal and probably would have understood where the person was coming from.
However, I have learned that if he will lie about stupid things like that, he will likely lie about bigger things too.
If I really liked the guy, I'd keep seeing him. Online dating has the unique ability to allow us to eliminate potential great relationships, based on our own preferences, and I like that. I generally don't look for things outside of what I know I want or like, but if something outside the box jumps in my path, and I like it, I don't really care how it got there.
This is a guy who thinks being 40+ people aren't good enough. He doesn't want to date one, and he doesn't want to be one. There is nothing attractive about a person who doesn't like who they are/where they are in life.

Men and women are different. Perhaps the guy wants to start a family
for the first time, even though he is 44. For purely biological reasons
he's looking for women who will be in childbearing range for a number
of years. It's impossible to tell if a woman can have children at 44
some do, some can't but the chances are lower especially since 3-4
years into a marriage the woman would be mid/later 40's.

None of this is in your OP nor your poll. You didn't say he lied because he wanted to have children, you only said he wanted to be considered by younger women who would otherwise think he is too old.
Why are you changing the facts now, is this a rigged thread? Do you want a particular outcome and will argue against anyone standing in the way?
